Review Aegis Defenders (Switch eShop)

Guide Hidden Gems On Nintendo Switch eShop
Find these buried treasures on the Switch eShop
The term ‘hidden gem’ gets bandied around a lot, and often erroneously; an occasionally overlooked entry in a long-running, celebrated franchise isn't a hidden gem.

Good game. Gets kinda tough when playing alone. When you get the hang of it, it's pretty rad.
Demo gave me pretty good idea of the game, and the full version didn't disappoint at all. It delivered exactly what I expected and a lot more.
I encountered severe bugs like game freezing while loading, saves syncing partially after a load, collections not syncing correctly. The game difficulty also jumps too much between 1 player mode and 2 player mode. For the 1 player mode, I always need a 2nd playthrough after remembering each wave. For the 2 player mode, it was all too easy. There was no scaled difficulty.
